When walking from Wang Meng's residence, Wu Ziyun was already a little drunk and could not walk smoothly.
He doesn't usually drink, but today was a special situation, so he drank a little.
Wu Ziyun drank almost as much as Zhang Zhong, but he couldn't hold it anymore.
Xu Yuhan drove Wu Ziyun's car and sent him back to his residence first. Then Zhang Zhong and the three of them took a taxi back to the hotel.
After returning to the hotel, Pengpeng couldn't help but open the gifts.
The box Wang Meng gave them before was too embarrassed to open at home.
"The box is so beautiful, and the things inside must be even more beautiful."
Pengpeng opened the box with great expectations, but when she saw the contents inside, she was a little disappointed, "It's not very pretty either..."
Zhang Zhong stretched his head and took a look. Inside Pengpeng's box was a silver longevity lock. The surface was bright, but the inside of the groove was already somewhat black.
Both the style and the blackened grooves prove that this longevity lock is an old thing.
Zhang Zhong took the longevity lock in his hand and turned it over. The words "Longevity" were still clear and undamaged, but some of the words on the small holes on the lock were a bit blurry and difficult to read. Be clear about what is written.
He took a closer look again, and then touched it with his hand for a long time, and finally determined that the vague words should be: Jutai Silver Building.
Xu Yuhan said from the side, "I have never heard of Jutai Silver Tower."
Zhang Chong smiled and said, "This thing must be a few years old. Maybe the silver building is no longer there."
"I'll check it out and find out."
Xu Yuhan took out her mobile phone and searched around the Internet, and finally found the news about Jutai Bank.
"There really is this silver building. It was a very famous silver building in Shanghai in the 1920s. It is said that it is one of the three major silver buildings. The other two Qifu Silver Building and Daquan Silver Building are still there, but this Jutai Silver Building seems to be one of the three major silver buildings. It went bankrupt in the 1900s." Xu Yuhan told the news she found.
Zhang nodded and said, "It seems that this longevity lock must be hundreds of years old."
"It's hard for us to accept such a valuable thing."
In fact, this thing is not expensive at all. Ancient gold and silver jewelry generally has no special meaning and does not have high added value.
There should still be a lot of silverware left over from the Republic of China.
However, Wang Meng may not have bought this thing from outside, so although it is not expensive, it represents a kind of sentiment.
"Just keep it." Zhang Zhong put the lock back into the box, and then asked Xu Yuhan, "What's in your box?"
"I haven't looked at it yet." Xu Yuhan took out the box, opened it once and said with a smile, "It can't be a longevity lock..."
When the box was opened, Xu Yuhan's expression was stunned.
Zhang Zhong looked at the golden hairpin lying inside the box and said, "This should also be an old object."
Pengpeng saw Jin Chai and said, "Wow, this looks good."
This hairpin has been around for a long time and is not as shiny as new jewelry. However, the carvings on it are very delicate and there is a blue gemstone set in it.
If we really compare, there are many more beautiful hairpins in gold shops now, but the old thing has the charm of the old thing. Although the luster is a bit worse, it still looks very beautiful.
This hairpin is definitely more valuable than the longevity lock, but Zhang Zhong is not sure how valuable it is.
Zhang Zhong decided to go back and find an expert for appraisal.
The reason for appraising the value of the hairpin is not because Zhang Zhong cares about how much it is worth. No matter how much it is worth, Zhang Zhong will keep it well and will not sell it.
However, understanding the value of gifts given by others is what the recipient of the gift should do.
If you don't even understand the value of a gift and accept it in a daze, it's not a good idea.
"This hairpin is beautiful, but unfortunately I can't wear it." Xu Yuhan sighed.
"You can buy a costume later and match it, so you can wear it, right?"
"Even if it comes with clothes, I can't bear to wear such an old thing whenever I want."
Zhang Zhong smiled and put the gold hairpin back, "Keep it well."
…
When Zhang Zhong and others returned to Jiangyang the next day, Yu Dongyu was with them.
After drinking yesterday, while Yu Dongyu was a little tipsy, Zhang Zhong tricked him into giving a speech at the middle school, and he readily agreed.
Originally, Zhang Zhong wanted him to come over and give a speech next semester, but maybe Yu Dongyu was a little drunk at the time, so he said, "What are you going to do next semester? It's better to choose a day. Aren't students still on vacation? I'll go to Jiangyang with you tomorrow."
Get this done."
A gentleman's words are hard to chase.
The next morning, after Yu Dongyu woke up, he did not forget his previous promise to Zhang Zhong, and took the initiative to contact Zhang Zhong and come with them.
However, although he arrived very neatly, he still had some scattered thoughts on the way.
"You are so unreasonable, you fooled me while I was drunk."
Zhang Chong smiled and said, "I saw that you were very sober at that time, and you didn't look like you were drunk at all."
"Drunk is not really drunk, but after drinking a person's adrenaline hormones surge, and it is easy to be fooled."
"I am also a science student. The surge of adrenaline hormones does not mean that I am easy to be fooled. But it is true that drinking alcohol can amplify human desires. I take it that you have long wanted to visit Shi Middle School? Are you embarrassed to mention it? It seems like this
, I also did good things." Zhang Chong said with a smile.
"You guy, you got a good deal and acted like a good boy. Wasn't your junior high school just a corner of Jiangyang University? It's not like I've never been to Jiangyang University."
"It will be different in a while. Our new campus is about to start construction. If it is not completed next semester, it will definitely be completed next year. If you go and see it then, it will definitely be very different."
"Hey, you are trying to trick me into going back later."
"It's not deception, it's seduction."
…
The land for the campus built by Reed Group for Shizhong College has been completed, which is the land to the east that was previously held by TEDA Real Estate.
It is said that Lide Group used some means to obtain this land, but Zhang Zhong is not sure what means he used. He only knows that TEDA Real Estate finally gave in.
When Yu Dongyu went to school, he definitely couldn't just give a speech to the students of Shizhong College. After all, he also had to use the school's lecture hall.
The speech was decided very suddenly, that is, the school only informed the students this morning that Yu Dongyu would give a speech in the school lecture hall in the evening.
Many students didn't believe it when they heard the news, because it was too sudden and urgent. It was unreasonable to give a speech in the evening and only get the news in the morning.
However, after visiting the official website, their doubts were dispelled. The homepage of the official website is the announcement of the speech, which is clearly written.
No matter what, the school can't joke with students about this kind of thing.
